IPL 2019: Complete list of players released, retained,

The first step towards what is expected to be another
edition of a frenetic Indian Premier League (IPL) auction for the 2019 edition
was taken on Thursday, 15 November. The list of all players retained and
released by the eight franchises of the cash-rich T20 league was released as
teams opted to make few changes before the next month auction.

The retention of Australian duo Steve Smith and David Warner
by Rajasthan Royals and Sunrisers Hyderabad headlined the activity. Both the
players missed out on the 2018 edition after receiving one-year bans from
Cricket Australia for the ball-tampering incident.

Among Indian heavyweights to be released were Gautam Gambhir
(Delhi Daredevils) and Yuvraj Singh (Kings XI Punjab). Gambhir, who stepped
down as Daredevils' captain midway through the last season, was bought for Rs
2.8 crore, while KXIP dished out Rs 2crore for the services of Yuvraj.
Rajasthan also decided to let go of left-arm pacer Jaydev Unadakat, for whom
they spent Rs 11.5 crore in the previous auction.

Indian Premier League teams have announced the list of
players retained, released and traded by them ahead of the IPL auction for the
upcoming season of the cash-rich league.

Here is the complete list of players retained and released by every team:
